Rueben on the front desk made us very welcome, treating us to a glass of wine and showing us to our room.

Joanne Canada

Friendly and helpful staff, breakfast was very nice and they tried to make some small difference everyday (we stayed 4 nights). Very strong water pressure and big enough shower area with stable hot water. Private access to the beach, everything was pleasant.

Elizabeth Canada

The swimming pool, the boardwalk, and the oceanfront location. The buffet meal plan is very good value. No smoking in the restaurant inside. The hotel is kept very clean.

Judy Canada

Nicky United Kingdom

The food at the Oriental is AWESOME!! Can’t say enough about the variety and quality of food at the breakfast and dinner buffets. I love children but adults-only is SO RELAXING! The view of the water and the beach is fabulous.

Thomas United States of America

Incredible side sea view room - 3rd floor. Amazing and very friendly staff. The room was always spotless after cleaning. The decoration of the entire hotel and the rooms is really nice. The pool lounge is remarkable. To highlight the excellent cooking service with a wide variety of food available every dinner. The breakfast was also very rich, fresh and tasty. I highly recommend to stay with half-board included. Definitely to come back!

Sofia Portugal
